What is a Wet Belt?

A wet belt (or "belt-in-oil") is a modern timing belt design that runs inside the engine, lubricated by engine oil. Unlike traditional dry timing belts, wet belts are quieter and often last longer—however, they can deteriorate over time if not changed at the correct interval. Failure to replace a worn wet belt can cause major engine damage and costly repairs.

  • Quieter & Lower Maintenance: Runs inside the engine for reduced noise and friction.
  • Critical Timing: Synchronises camshaft and crankshaft; failure can destroy your engine.
  • Interval: Most manufacturers recommend replacement every 6 years or 60,000–100,000 miles. Check your handbook or call us for advice.
  • Symptoms of Wear: Rattling, poor running, warning lights, or engine misfire.
